Web album of my journey from Helsinki to Munich via sea and land
This web album comprises of the photos I took during my 53-hour journey from Helsinki to Munich via sea and land. I took the Viking Line ferry from Helsinki to Stockholm, the X2000 high-speed train from Stockholm to Copenhagen and the ICE high-speed train from Copenhagen to Hamburg and on to Munich. I spent a night in the ferry from Helsinki to Stockholm and another in a hotel in Copenhagen. I was forced to take this route due to the volcano eruption in Iceland that basically grounded all flights in Europe.

I hope you enjoyed my 3-part photo blog series on Marienplatz, Kaufingerstrasse and Karlsplatz. I realize that this has been a long time coming, but here's a slideshow of my web album from the photo shooting session that I had.

Web album on Landshuter Hochzeit
My wife and I visited the Landshut Wedding or better known as Landshuter Hochzeit a few weeks ago. The Landshuter Hochzeit is a medieval festival that is celebrated once every four years in Landshut, which is a city in the state of Bavaria. It is one of the most famous and as far as I know, the largest medieval festival in Germany. As you can guess, there are other medieval festivals in Germany as well. During the Landshuter Hochzeit, the city and its folks turn back time to the middle ages. People dress up in medieval costumes, set up huts and stalls typical of those times, parade through the city playing music, perform juggling acts and so forth. They become a medieval community. This year, the Landshut Wedding was celebrated from the 27th of June till the 19th of July.
Our visit to the Landshuter Hochzeit was a splendid one. You can read all about it in my Living in Munich blog. I have published three posts on our vist and here are the links to them: Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3. Apart from sightseeing, our visit to the Landshuter Hochzeit was an excellent photo shooting session for me. I was truly able to put my recently acquired photography skills to the test and I'm pretty content with the outcome. I have finished working on the shots I took that day and just uploaded them to my Picasa Web Gallery. Click on the image below to get to the album. Unfortunately, I've not had the chance to include captions yet but I promise to do so a.s.a.p.
Do tell me what you think about the photos.

Web album: sharing on Picasa Web
There are various websites that offer free photo sharing and web album services on the Internet. Among the most popular are Picasa Web and Flickr. I believe that Nikon has one too but I have never used it before. There are also some online photo retailers that allow you to create an account, upload your pictures to a web album and share them with others. Authorized visitors can then order prints of these photos directly from them. This is an excellent tool for occasions when everyone wants prints from themselves. It eradicates the formerly cumbersome task of someone taking the orders from everyone, printing them out and then collecting the money - well, there usually isn't a profit in it anyway, right?
I use Picasa Web. Picasa Web, which is part of Google, allows a user to upload pictures to any web album in his / her online gallery to be shared with others. The free service comes with 1 GB of storage space. If this is not sufficient, users have the option of purchasing more storage space at very reasonable rates. Prices range from USD 20 / year for 10 GB of storage all the way to USD 500 / year for 400 GB.
Picasa Web is also very well integrated with Picasa, a free photo management program by Google. I use Picasa a lot. There are some limitations with it, but I can live with them. I like the fact that Picasa can be set to scan certain folders in my computer for changes and will then automatically update my collection accordingly. It also allows me to upload photos to a web album with a simple push of a button.
Here's a slide show of the pictures I have in my online gallery. Picasa Web allows you to do this too.
You can visit my Picasa Web gallery through this link. Feel free to browse through any web album. If you're a Google user and would like to receive updates on my gallery (e.g. new photos, new web album), I would encourage you to make me a favorite.
